Comment
The Lyons herd on the University College Dublin farm in mid-April: farms like this, producing 46% more milk solids per cow than the national average, may yet be the template for a dairy industry with much fewer cows and a much lower carbon footprint, but still producing as much or more milk than our current dairy cow herd of about 1.5 million.

This is likely to have reduced methane emissions from dairy cows by 20%, thus contributing to global cooling.
